Maintenance Tests

Overview

The R Series has two checkout procedures: the R Series Operator’s Guide defibrillator testing checklist and the extensive 12-month maintenance test
checkout procedures.

Because the R Series units must be maintained ready for immediate use, regular readiness testing is required. It can either be performed manually or
automatically. Refer to the R Series Operator’s Guide for details.

A qualified biomedical technician must perform a more thorough maintenance test checkout every 12 months to ensure that the functions of the R Series
unit work properly. This chapter describes the step by step procedures for performing the 12 month maintenance test checkout. Use the checklist at the
back of this document (ZOLL R Series Maintenance Test Checklist) to record your results of the maintenance tests.
